The Guitar
E-Smoove Lyrics

clabama Guitar Man
Written by Melvin Knoblett - 2016


I was born in the country on the other side of that mason dixon line.
In all of my yankee schoolin', I swear I never heard of a muscadine.
I got a letter from Uncle Sam cordially inviting me to Vietnam
So, when I got back to the real world Lord, I found a place I could understand.

I came to the south with a wife and child for a life down in the New Orleans.
I worked real hard and played hard too and danced on the Mississippi Queen.
I got good news - I still had a job. But, it was up in Birmingham.
Now I'm a transplanted yankee that's turned into clabama guitar man.


I'm a transplanted yankee that's turned into an clabama guitar man.
I'm learnin' how to live like a redneck child and givin' a helping hand.
Now when they ask me where'd you come from boy, I'm just proud of where I am.
'Cause I'm a transplanted yankee that's turned into clabama guitar man.
